✦ Synopsis

Key Features

• Build React and React Native applications using familiar component concepts
• Dive deep into each platform, from routing in React to creating native mobile applications that can run offline
• Use Facebook's Relay, React and GraphQL technologies, to create a unified architecture that powers both web and native applications

Book Description

React and React Native allow you to build cross-platform desktop and mobile applications using Facebook's innovative UI libraries. Combined with the Flux data architecture and Relay, you can now create powerful and feature-complete applications from just one code base!

This book is split into three parts. The first part shows you how to start crafting composable UIs using React, from rendering with JSX and creating reusable components through to routing and creating isomorphic applications that run on Node.

We then move on to showing you how to take the concepts of React and apply them to building Native UIs using React Native. You'll find out how to build responsive and streamlined UIs that can properly handle user interactions in a mobile environment. You'll also learn how to access device-specific APIs such as the geolocation API, and how to handle offline development with React Native.

Finally, we'll tie all of these skills together and shows you how you can create React applications that run on every major platform. As well as understanding application state in depth, you'll learn how to leverage Relay to make feature-complete, data-driven web and native mobile applications.

What you will learn

• Craft reusable React components
• Control navigation using the React Router to help keep your UI in
